Use your leftover rotisserie chicken or your favourite chicken breast recipe for this Leftover Chicken Flatbread Pizza. So easy and great lunch idea.
Is it just me, or is it SUPER difficult to think up lunch ideas?
Seriously. All of my lunches for the past few years have consisted of salami and cheese in between two slices of bread.
Every. Damn. Day. The snacks change, but the core part of my lunch remains this boring sandwich. Until now!
After making my honey chipotle chicken last week, I have been making it almost daily because it is so gosh darn easy. And that means leftovers.
So much chicken leftovers.
Not that I am complaining.The leftover chicken for that recipe almost tastes better than when the chicken is fresh out of the oven. Plus, I can make delicious meals with it. Like this one.
This Leftover Chicken Flatbread Pizza is so easy to make, it might become my new go-to lunch idea. It can be made and devoured on the spot, or made ahead and portioned into tupperware containers for the workdays ahead.
Now that is my kind of meal prep!
I think I might be ready for the week ahead. For the first time ever this year.

this sounds like an awesome lunch idea! i’ve been in a salad rut using the same ingredients, so a change in my meal prep would be very welcome (:
I need to start making salads! You need to post some of your salads so I get some ideas!
Oh hello Leftover Chicken Flatbread Pizza!! Looks and sounds so cheesy and delicious. I want to eat it right now!!! 🙂
Haha, thanks! It was gone way too quickly!
I love repurposed food like this, waste is a terrible thing and this is an awesome way to use up something. Lunches are difficult, it’s hard to come up with exciting new things to keep a lunchbox exciting. This is definetly a step in the right direction.
I agree! I hate waste!
Makes me hungry lol. Still haven’t made my own pizza. Going to pin this for later . Have been thinking about buying a pizza oven for a while now .
Thanks for the pin! I don’t have a pizza oven, but I’m sure it would taste a lot better in one!
just needs bacon added
So true! Next time 🙂
Nice way to use up left over chicken
Right? I do this every time I buy rotisserie chicken
Using the flatbread is a great idea for thew leftover chicken because it will greatly reduce the cooking time, which will keep the chicken fry becoming too dry.
Yes!! Agreed 😉
